It's over.

These two words flashed through Pei Yanzhou's mind.

During this time, he felt that Cheng Xi was no longer resisting her so much.

Mu Xuetong's appearance today seems to have brought everything back to the starting point.

"Cheng Xi, let me tell you a story."

Pei Yanzhou tugged on the tie around his neck, his handsome face showing a trace of depression, "When I was in elementary school, an enemy of my father's business targeted me. I still remember that it was a weekend, and when I just came out of school,

I was still thinking about where to go during the weekend tomorrow, but in the blink of an eye I was tied into a car."

Cheng Xi's heart skipped a beat.

In fact, she had heard Pei Feiyue talk about these things before, but this was the first time she heard it from Pei Yanzhou.

In the dark car, the man's voice was low, "I was tied up by several people after I got in the car. I was young at the time and I kept resisting. They scolded me, beat me, kicked me, and stuffed me in the trunk.

, I was quickly taken out of Sioux City. It was cold at that time, and it lasted for more than half a month. I didn’t have enough to eat, and it was very cold. If I didn’t like it, they would take it out on me. What I ate was rotten rice and rotten water.”

Cheng Xi finally turned his eyes from the neon-lit window and looked at the handsome, dignified, and proud man next to him.

She knew very well that Pei Yanzhou had revealed to her the most embarrassing past events that he had least wanted to recall.

For a person of his background, this kind of thing would probably be rotten in his stomach for the rest of his life.

However, he told her.

Pei Yanzhou looked at her bitterly, "I once thought that I would not be able to survive and die. Finally, I found an opportunity to sneak out at night when they were not paying attention. However, they soon discovered that I was there all the way.

I was running wildly in the woods. I had not eaten for a long time. When I missed my foot, I rolled down the hillside and fainted in the afternoon. Later, Uncle Mu who was passing by saved me and sent me to the hospital."

"When I woke up, the doctor said I might have lost my memory after being hit while rolling down the mountain, but I knew it was Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu who saved me. They had no money, but they still used their remaining savings to treat me.

Otherwise I might become a fool."

Pei Yanzhou smiled bitterly and wanted to get a cigarette, but when he thought of Cheng Xi in the car, he held it back.

"Think about it, an eight-year-old child who is scarred and doesn't know who he is, looks to Uncle Mu as his savior and relies on him like a father. I'm afraid of being left behind. They also feel sorry for me and take me away.

After returning home, I could only walk when I first went to Mu’s house.

Xuetong made a fuss because Aunt Mu originally said she would send her to kindergarten, but because she saved me, the family had no extra money, so she couldn't afford to go to kindergarten. The little girl kept crying there and made a fuss for a few days.

Because of me, she has never been able to go to kindergarten."

Cheng Xi didn't say anything, but he could understand why he had been so indulgent to Mu Xuetong, because he owed it to the Mu family and Mu Xuetong's childhood.

Pei Yanzhou: "The Mu family supported me until I was in my third year of high school. Because of an accident, I remembered my childhood and my identity. I returned to the Pei family, but I grew up in the Mu family and had already forgotten Mu.

Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu regard me as my biological parents. In addition to Mu Xuetong, there is also Ruoqi, who is Xuetong’s sister. When I returned from studying abroad, Ruoqi went to the airport to pick me up. Something happened on the way.

In a vegetative state.”

The man's voice became hoarse, and there was also a flash of suppressed pain, "Although I bought a house for the Mu family and found a job for Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu in Sioux City, the kindness that the Mu family has shown to me is not the same as my feelings for the Mu family.

It is difficult to repay the debt, so I cannot ignore Xuetong's affairs. They only have one daughter, Xuetong, and Xuetong is their life."

Pei Yanzhou raised his head and looked at her, "Cheng Xi, I know very well that you don't like Xuetong, but if I don't solve today's matter, Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu will definitely come forward in the end, and they may sell their house and car for Mu Xuetong.

To repay, I have no choice.”

Cheng Xi nodded and said softly: "I understand you. If it were me and you, I would do the same thing."
